Impacting God's Kingdom One Word At A Time!
Its Christformation first,then transformation happens!
It is CHRISTFORMATION in you,Not Transformation!
Mark 2:21-22 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)

21"No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from the old, making the tear worse. 22And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, he pours new wine into new wineskins."
It is Christformation in us and not 'transformation' that takes place from the 'Seed' -the Word of God sown in us.The big picture given here in the verses above by the Lord Jesus is that, the new piece of cloth sewn on the old garment and the new wine in old wineskins is actually a picture of transformation.God does not desire transformation in us He desires full Christformation in us.
God's seed which is actually the divine nature of Christ sown in us does not transform itself from the sinful nature of satan sown in us from the garden of Eden through Adam and Eve.The Good Seed is sown on the good soil in our hearts or the inner man to grow into full Christformation in us.Without Christformation in our born again spirit,there will be no transformation of the mind(soul) and the body(at rapture or resurrection). Christformation in us is the 'house' we will be clothed with. This will only appear according to our submission to the Holy Spirit for consecration and obedience while on earth.
Why is the church in 'ruins' today? Why is the 'tear' worse of than before?
It is because we are deceived into believing we only need to 'patch' things up.We have begun to accept that we only need to 'add on' to what is there already."No man can enter the Kingdom of God unless he or she is born again".We can only be born again by the Holy Spirit.Our spirit gets born again with the help of the 'Helper',the Holy Spirit our God.He witnesses to our spirit within us to be born again in Christ and be able to call our Father in Heaven,Abba Father.
From here on, the Holy Spirit helps us all the way to full Christformation in us through our obedience to God's Word sown in us.We do not transform into one because the sinful nature is still in us but is being separated from us daily by us putting to death our sinful nature on the cross of Christ our Lord by the power of the Holy Spirit.While we put to death our sinful nature,Christ is being formed in our divine nature already sown in us by the Holy Spirit and the Word.The two cannot grow together for they are two separate natures in one body.One must die in order for the other to live.
